In the photo above, you can see the crack in the middle of the monument. There is an old tree stump
directly to the right of the monument. Thus we believe that the tree must have fallen on and broken the monument requiring
it to be repaired.

Lu Dawn & Carol At Milford Cemetery

This cemetery had many spiders! You can even make out a couple of them on the

The Ross' landed in Windsor, Nova Scotia. From there they came to Milford Station, N.S. The
father, George 1789, cleared the land and built a log cabin. Three children were born here. Nathaniel did not
come to Canada. He stayed with his grandparents in Ireland. When his mother (Annie Bateman) married George Ross,
her parents disowned her because the Bateman's were of a higher social class.

Norman & Mary lived Sydney, Cape Breton. After Norman died in 1928, Mary came to Boston,
Mass. where she met and married Neil MacKay. Neil & Mary had one child: Roy (More on Roy & his family later
below).

Colin did not work with dogs - Dad refused to! He was biten by a Great Dane as a paper boy.
The great dane took a chunk out of Dad's forearm. (Thank you Sissy for that story). I thought it was a bite
to his calf.
